In I, Strahd: The War Against Azalin, Strahd possesses a thief and controls him in an invasion of Darkon and the kidnapping of a vampire general of the Karget (Vychen, I think). He then possesses Vychen and sends him back to sows the seeds of chaos in Darkon all the time controlling his actions and thoughts.cure wrote:And to some small extent he managed to go beyond the bounds of Barovia via mental possession.

Re: hitting a wall . . . Forlorn
I believe that's correct--haven't read I, Strahd: The War Against Azalin in a while, but I believe that's what happened when he tried to physically cross into Forlorn.cure wrote:I recall the mist stories involving the good Count of Barovia.
But didn't he hit a wall when Forlorn appeared?
And to some small extent he managed to go beyond the bounds of Barovia via mental possession.
And he does know he's trapped, obviously--he even asks the question of Azalin after the emergence of Darkon: "Are you trapped within this land, as I am within my own?" or words to that effect.
